Brett Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 I wish the guy would have let me search through them first. All I would have needed was a week to pull out all the wheats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayKay Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Hmmm.... $13,000 accumulated over 39 years ... forfeiting an average of say 4% interest each year, plus the loss of buying power due to inflation, plus a 9% or so "service fee" to those generous ol' folks at CoinStar ...

Not too many. I'm guilty of the change hoarding myself. I don't quite have that much though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggit Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I was concerned about the amount of pennies I have laying around. Obviously I am doing just fine and am well within limits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Jesus, I have lots of small changes, but nothing close to 1million pennies. The most I have is like some 1000+ of copper "pennies" lying around, but omg lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sch3258 Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I wonder what numismatic treasures he carelessly turned in? 09S VDBs, 22 plains, 55 DDOs? If I worked at the bank or even knew someone at the bank I would be begging for a chance to go through them. Heck, at only 13k, take out a quicky loan, buy them, go through them, and sell them back. I would take the bet that he could have doubled his 13k numismatically speaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
